Things Fall Apart #2

Now that I have been reading more into Things Fall Apart, we start to see many changes. First, Okonkwo starts to finally show some feelings. Such as, when Ezinma is taken by Chielo. He stayed there for her and her mother all night, which was really sweet. Hopefully he will continue to show more of his feelings. A thing that really suprised me is when Okonkwo had to move away from his clan for 7 years, just for unintentionally killing a young boy. Even though he might deserve a punishment, he lost a lot and has to restart everthing for his family.  Which I kind of feel sorry for. His uncle Uchendu noticed Okonkwo’s grief, but reminded him that he is in his motherland for protection. Another big change is when word came around that the British is starting to colonize in Africa. They had already wiped out the village Abame. Although, Okonkwo's son Nwoye seems to be very interested in learning their new way of things.
